Loved this place. Can’t beat the location and the staff is wonderful. It is right on the beach by some bars and it can be a loud at night. If you want fun, clean, safe, in town, close to everything, and right on the beach this is a fabulous option. If you are looking for fancy and quiet this is not what you are looking for. But we LOVED it and will be back.

Property is great location and staff so kind but there are noisy bars close. On a sunday night it wasn’t bad but weekend nights can get loud. Also, expedia map has wrong location. It shows the property 2 blocks east of the square …, but it’s not. It’s right off the main pier. My one night stay was lovely though I booked based on an incorrect location which is not the hotel fault but hopefully Expedia cam correct.

The hotel El Faro was absolutely amazing. The location was perfect, right on the side of the ocean. The room was clean, as described, towels exchange upon request, and staff offered to clear the room on a regular basis. Loved our stay. Staff was amazingly helpful and friendly!

Un hotel rústico con un toque propio de la isla; enfrente del mar qué cuenta con agua caliente, A/C y con una atención del staff qué andan siempre pendiente de uno. Agradezco mucho al bellboy jhonny que si tienen dudas de lugares donde comer o tours el puede faciliterles la información y la compra.

Très bien situé!
Très belle expérience ! L’endroit vient d’ouvrir, tout est neuf, la piscine est géniale, le directeur et les employés sont vraiment sympathiques et aidants. ❤️ Quelques améliorations sont à apporter (crochets, anti-dérapant sur les marches de la piscine, plus de chaises/tables extérieures, 1-2 chaises sur chacun des balcons): le directeur est tout ouïe aux commentaires des clients. Si vous désirez le calme pour dormir, soyez avertis: il y a de la musique forte autour jusqu’à tard dans la nuit.

The hotel is pretty new Very pretty, beautiful pool area, beach front The rooms have no tables or nightstands no place to put your water bottle, or sit your purse lol… Music will be playing very loud from 3 pm to 4 am. Very very loud Be aware of that !!!! Besides the music and the no tables situation is pretty good… Also no blankets on the bed Only sheets… Jonathan the front desk guy was very nice and helpful.

J’ai séjourné dans cet hôtel récemment et l’expérience a été très décevante. Dès la première nuit, j’ai été confronté à un bruit incessant qui a perturbé mon sommeil jusqu’à 7h du matin. Que ce soit des bruits provenant de la ville ou des rues voisines, impossible de trouver le calme nécessaire pour se reposer. De plus, j’ai contacté le personnel pour discuter d’une possible annulation ou compensation pour les nuits précédentes, mais malheureusement, leur réponse a été totalement insatisfaisante. Aucun effort n’a été fait pour résoudre la situation ou pour proposer un geste commercial. Je ne recommande pas cet hôtel à ceux qui recherchent un séjour reposant ou un service client réactif. À éviter si vous êtes sensible au bruit ou si vous attendez un minimum de prise en charge en cas de problème.

Merveilleux hotel face a la mer
Merveilleux hotel au bord de la plage. La chambre est bien, le lit est confortable. Vie sur la mer depuis la chambre et balcon. Belle salle de bain. Piscine avec vue sur ma mer. Vraiment très bien! Personnel très souriant et sympathique. Le bruit? Pas un problème car partout vous aurez de la musique. Mais la Lisiane est pas forte autour. Merveilleux lever et coucher de soleil ! Donc en conclusion… hotel idéal pour passer une ou deux nuits a Holbox !

Es un hotel pequeño y con servicios basicos, las habitaciones cumplen su funcion. Si no eres exigente y buscas algo seguro para dormir. Es el lugar
